Organ Transplant Centers: INTESTINE -- YEAR 2001 DATA

Below is a list of intestinal transplant programs. Only centers that performed at least one intestinal transplant in the year 2001 are included.

Intestinal transplants -- until a year ago regarded as experimental -- are eligible for Medicare coverage at centers that perform more than 10 per year.

At present, only four centers -- University of Miami Jackson Memorial, University of Pittsburgh, Mount Sinai and Nebraska -- qualify.

Keep in mind the possibility that programs may have been started, expanded or contracted significantly, or withdrawn since this data was compiled.
